Best Reactive Targets?

[sastark]

I plan on doing some post-Thanksgiving target shooting/plinking with my dad and brother this weekend, and got to thinking: What are some of the more "exciting" reactive targets? I've done paper (rather boring and hard to tell where you've hit without binoculars/spotting scope). I've done Shoot-N-See targets (better than plain paper, but still not as reactive as I'd like). I've heard that balloons filled with flour are fun, but I've never tried that.

Any other ideas?

You ever add a couple of drops of food coloring to the water? I'm just curious if this would be more noticeable or not.

Propane tanks are fun, but expensive.

cable locks. just make sure you are a bit away as they frag.

Clay pigeons do nicely.

Try the ones baldoHHO linked to. I've used a number of those targets and they work very well. Best of all, you don't have to reset them or have nothing to shoot after one shot. Also try golf balls, bowling pins and clay pigeons. I especially like the Daisy Shatterblasters, little 2" clays. Great for long range practice.

Get some reaaally cheap sodas such as private selections, shake em' up and set them at a good distance. Try to plink em' off at maybe 100 or 200 yards with your rifle. They'll create a nice explosion, just make sure you pick up the cans afterwards.

Tannerite is always fun too.

Tannerite, no question.

Go to the .99 cent store and see what they have in the way of potatoes or onions. Both will provide a satisfying burst of plant tissue when hit. Also, if you happen to have an ornamental orange tree in your yard you can pick boatloads of oranges and shoot those. Cheap golf balls are another option that will provide quite a bit of enjoyment.

Ground squirrells. They react if you hit or not, moves across your field of fire just like the shooting galleries of old.
